Buxom Power-full Plump Lip Balm, Inner Glow, 0.17 Fl Oz

As always , Buxom lip plumping balm is excellent . Even though it doesn’t have a narrow point ,it always covers the bow and edges of my lips sooooooooo perfectly without my even looking in a mirror . Really !! I can reapply this balm anywhere , check later , and it is always on perfectly . Yes , it sounds vain. Nevertheless my lips have no lines or wrinkles around them . Actually they often don’t have lines on them because of the plumping action . I have often been accused of being a perfectionist . Well , I do certain things exceptionally well and taking care of my face is on that list . I am smiling !! I am wearing Buxom lip plumping balm and Buxom lip gloss and Buxom Dolly blush , Buxom mascara and Buxom Demure Dolly eyeliner . I look good : )

The color is nice, I really like the tingle as I put it on my lips but I don’t really see the plump

I received this today and based on the product description was excited to try it out. I wanted to like this product, but I am disappointed for the following reasons: 1) When I pulled the cap off, the entire contents of the tube popped out and landed on my lap (see photo for what the contents of the tube actually look like). Thankfully I was wearing black workout pants - if I had lighter colored pants on they would have been stained. 2) There is very little product compared to the size of the outer tube. The packaging is deceptive. See the photo for actual size of the lip balm contents. 3) Hoping it might still be a quality product, I inserted it back into the tube and then applied the lip balm. The color is just really bad. I understand that the color can vary based on a person's skin tone, etc., but it showed up for me as an unflattering pink color (like Pepto Bismol) which doesn't align with my complexion at all (and I can't imagine this color being flattering for any skin tone). The only reason I gave this 2 stars is that it seems to be a good emollient. But for that purpose, I will just apply a standard lip balm and avoid the pitfalls of this product until I can find a better solution.

I've used and love Buxom's plumping gloss - I've over 6 in rotation as I write- I tried this version because of Black Friday and was excited to expand my Buxom horizons. Great color and texture but my new discovery was rancid. Lips close to nose on the face means you're smelling it as long as it's on your mouth - THAT and old oil is a stomach hater. Anyway, I say YES, but check expiration date. I'm anxious to try another.

Lighter in color than expected but it’s a good lip balm.
